Former Premier League striker Peter Odemwingie has warned Sky Sports‚ West Bromwich Albion and Queens Park Rangers that he is considering legal action over his infamous failed transfer on deadline day in 2013. Odemwingie was at the centre of one of the most bizarre deadline day stories of all time when he was interviewed by reporters from through his car window outside QPR's Loftus Road stadium‚ believing he had completed a move to the London club. It later emerged that QPR and West Brom‚ Odemwingie's club at the time‚ had failed to agree a transfer fee for the Nigerian striker and the proposed move collapsed just minutes before the 11pm deadline‚ ultimately sending him back to the Baggies.

MATT BARLOW AT THE GTECH COMMUNITY STADIUM: Amid so much change‚ some things remain the same.

Roberto De Zerbi saw his team outplayed in every department. Unable to cope with the intensity and physicality in midfield. Unable to handle Brentford's aerial presence up at the back. Unable to get a hold of the ball and offer any threat in attack

Despite taking the lead inside two minutes through Harry Maguire's header‚ United never looked quite right all afternoon against this dynamic Milan side. There was plenty of motivation on both sides and while Amorim hugged each and every United player that was in the starting line-up‚ it was he who had the last laugh thanks to goals from Samuel Chukwueze‚ Alphadjo Cisse‚ Goncalo Ramos and Ruben Loftus-Cheek.
